It is quite thick - almost like a cream - if you're used to the cheap lotions from the supermarket, but I put this on while my face is still a little wet from showering and my skin turns silky smooth:)

I really respect Weleda products - not tested on animals and no petrochemicals. They're the most respected brand in Germany. No false promises, either. Face creams cannot make you look younger - skin and other organs of the body rely on good food - fresh, clean, organic vegetables etc. If you eat crap, don't expect your skin to be beautiful - simple but true. You are what you eat.
